Nelson Mandela Bay is ready for the Transnet National Ports Authority head office move to Ngqura, with expectations high that the relocation is the game-changer needed to boost the province s ailing economy.

Arts and Culture minister Nathi Mthethwa back in September 2020 recommended an audit of offensive names, symbols and structures, such as statues, street names, public spaces, etc.

Name changes in South Africa
It was a slow process, spanning roughly two years. Not only was it a legal challenge, but residents were also given an opportunity to oppose any of the proposed changes.
The new name changes included Port Elizabeth, the PE International airport, and several other towns, such as Berlin, Uitenhage, and King Williams Town. The changes have now been gazetted.
